Answer 1

keywords & meta tags are the words that make your website stand out from billions of other pages. Say you have a web site about how to run a small business (SOHO) that you started to help other SOHO users, keywords like SOHO, SOHO experience, SOHO help etc are the keywords that a search engine like yahoo or google picks up & indexes more regularly. SO anyone searching for SOHO help, when searching for it on a search engine, would stand a better chance of seeing your site & coming to it if its listed more prominently or on the first page..
